Because biotechnology has applications beyond biology and medicine, some of this estimated industrial support of academic research went for work in fields such as agriculture. 

J. HE PUBLIC POLICY DEBATE on biotechnology development has shifted its focus from laboratory to deliberate-release issues. Thus, the feasibility and pace of agricultural applications is significantly influenced by newly formulated regulatory schemes, court proceedings, legislative deliberations, and evolving public perceptions.

Similarly, many man-made polymers and colloids have electrical charge, especially those used in aqueous systems, such as water purification, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, oil recovery, personal care, metallurgy, papeimakmg, food and agricultural applications, etc. 

The Health Sector (Food, Agriculture, and Pharmacy industries) has received the greatest impact of biotechnologies both, social and economical. Therefore, the chemical applications of biology to this sector have deeply contributed to that consolidation, leading the development of biotechnologies to a mature state. A list of biotechnological companies, exclusively associated to the Food and Pharmacy industries is included in Table 1. Those companies are not analyzed in this book and are only included for completeness purposes and to prevent the oil reader of useless search.
